About Tempura fried squash

Tempura Fried Squash is a crispy and flavorful dish rooted in Japanese cuisine, where tempura—lightly battered and deep-fried vegetables or seafood—is a popular preparation style. This dish features fresh squash slices dipped in a delicate batter of flour, water, and egg, then fried until golden brown. The tempura batter creates a light and airy texture that highlights the natural sweetness of the squash. While squash is rich in vitamins A and C, dietary fiber, and antioxidants, the frying process adds calories and fat content, making moderation key for those watching their intake. The dish pairs well with soy-based dipping sauces and can be a delightful way to enjoy vegetables. For a healthier twist, some opt for air-frying methods or serving it alongside nutrient-dense sides to balance the meal.
